Counters - KEEP THEM CLEAR!

When my husband is home for the weekend, this is what the kitchen counter looks like:

Counter by husband.
This was Sunday morning, when he was in his full-fledged counter-covering mode.  Where the f* are you supposed to prepare anything in the kitchen?  I mean, seriously?  This is ridiculous.  It looks like this every.  f*ing.  weekend.  and it drives me bananas.

This is what the kitchen counter looks like on Monday morning, after he goes to work and I clean it up:

Counter by me.
It's not perfect, but can you see where I prepare things now?  Yes, there's a counter there!  How hard is it to keep it clear and usable?  It took me probably five minutes of work to clear it and clean it.  ARGH!!!!

  1. to be fair, it looks like most of it is groceries that simply needed to be put away.....but I feel your pain :-) I'm usually the one cluttering up surfaces and it bugs Jim quite a bit....Since moving into this house, I'm actively trying to declutter our surfaces...find a home for EVERYTHING. I've gone so far now that we can't park in the garage until I take all that shit to goodwill! I don't miss it and cleaning is so much easier! Plus, our house still has plenty...it's by no means "minimalist". Good luck :-)
